When you import into LR have it convert the files to DNG. It has to be a DNG for this to work.
I then use the Lightroom Lens Tagger plug in to updated the data for the imported pictures to set the Lens Name, focal length and so on. I created a profile for the Sirui anamorphic lens and then just edit the command to include -DefaultScale="1.6 1" along with all the other commands. Once it finishes running on the files Lightroom de-squeezes the files automatically. You can do the same thing with Adobe DNG converter and exiftools. Not every editing program respects the defaultscale tag but LR does.
